More power to you. One reason I keep returning to OCF is a very selfish one: the incredible bravery and strength that people like you demonstrate helps me fight my anger and depression over the total unfairness of it all. Don't we all wish we could have been like the celebrity chef mentioned in another forum who just sailed through treatment and has full remission?
You are right of course about the positive attitude and for the most part I am quite cheerful and count all my blessings. Plus there are positive sides of the cancer For example, I will never have to worry about my weight again and I don't have to apologize for hastily spoken words anymore
